Ann Sweeten - Grey Sky and Bittersweet
- “Grey Sky and Bittersweet” is Ann Sweeten's. Sweeten is a classical pianist/composer/arranger. The album was produced by Grammy winner Will Ackerman. On it Sweeten will enamor listeners with her prowess on the piano and the wide range of melodies that are present.
“Water Diamonds” runs the gambit in terms of the speed Sweeten portrays on the piano. She tickles the ivories both expeditiously and slowly, giving the song a whimsical feel at times, as well as a more rushed one. This change in musical acceleration might invoke thoughts of a rippling fountain.
On “Autumn’s Last Caress” the piano work continues its silky tone along with intermittent pauses in the intro. The intricate construction of this track will undoubtedly bring a smile to the face of any listener as they envision hearing this song while watching leaves descend from trees during this season full of life and renewal.
With the title track, Sweeten brings forth sensory piano work with a pronounced melody that some listeners might find a touch on the sad side.
Ann Sweeten’s “Grey Sky and Bittersweet” is an album that showcases her classical instrumental training and gift for composition. On each song, Sweeten exhibits a smoldering fire and profundity that will certainly transcend to listeners.
